Re: Never heard of them. Were they known at all?

They've been around for years and when Neil Young wrote "Southern Man" they jumped in his face with "Sweet Home Alabam" in which they called him out my name, "Well I hope Neil Young will remember, Southern Man don't need him around."
Supposedly the name comes from a teacher they had in high school who's name was "Leonard Skinner." I'm not sure about that part.
The song rebutting Young did not endorse red-neck values. They even disowned Wallace-supposedly-and just sang the song because they didn't want some Canadian putting down the South.
